      I am looking to replace the standard, fixed, 2 blade propeller with a folding propeller 2 or 3 blade. The yacht has a Volvo Penta 2030 engine (29 hp) and a. 130S sail drive. (1:2.47).
      Does anyone have any recommendations regarding make of propeller and what size to look for? 2 or 3 blades? – Or should I just stay with the fixed 2 blade propeller?

        Hi Sten,

        I have a Bavaria 38 with a 55hp engine using a 3 blade folding prop works really well a 3 blade is normally much smoother and quieter than a two blade Gori is a good prop brand

          Take a look at Flexofold. Generally thought to be the best folding props.
